Jeff Rubin: How High Oil Prices Could End Climate Change

Jeff Rubin is the best-selling author of "Why Your World Is About To Get A Whole Lot Smaller," and he was one of the first economists to predict peak oil years before prices started to rise. In this video, WatchMojo.com speaks with Rubin about his book "The End of Growth – but is that all bad?," where he picks up on the theme of how rising oil prices are affecting the world. We even discuss countries like Japan and Denmark that have implemented successful programs to limit consumption and emissions. He also posits that this increase in the cost of power might eventually limit the effects of climate change because we will no longer be able to afford to buy the fuel to cause the emissions. Silver lining indeed. For more information, click Here .
